Style at Home Country Colour paint collection

It’s a tale as old as time: a room so cold and unwelcoming that guests seem to shy away from visits. But the right shade of
Beauti-Tone Paint, like the ones in the new
Style at Home Country Colour Collection, can make even the beastliest space ready for human contact. The gentle, casual hues of these beauties bring out the best in any style – from country to contemporary – with soft, effortless colours that are timelessly appealing, proving that (in this fairy tale, anyway) beauty is only wall deep.

Pick up a booklet at your local
Home Hardware store to view all 50 paint colours.

1 Odd coupleUnify seemingly disparate furniture colours (like the blush pink and sage green used here) with a neutral backdrop that has undertones of both colours. Earth-toned paints like these are versatile because of their many colour notes.

2 Code of contrastPainting wainscotting a hue subtly darker than the wall itself (two to three shades deeper) is just the right amount to make it a standout feature.

3 Simple sophisticationHere,
decorating with white takes centre stage in a range of styles. The formal club chairs with nailhead detailing, the casual linen sofa and the
toss cushions with vintage-inspired prints are all unified by the warm off-white walls.

4 Baby got backThe beadboard backing of this wooden hutch was given a dramatic dose of darkness in a colour that’s somewhere between charcoal grey and black. The satin
paint finish glistens in contrast to the patina of the rustic accessories on the shelf.

6 Redefining rainbowsThe creamy putty colour of this mirror’s frame just goes to show that a little colour – even one as muted as this – goes a long way in a sleek
white room.

7 MonochromeCreate a seamless effect in a room by choosing only one colour for your palette. Pick a paint chip that you love, take it with you on your hunt for
wallpaper patterns, fabrics and
decor accessories and bring everything together for a strong look that doesn’t overwhelm the eyes.

8 White houseTo make your
all-white room crisp and modern yet still warm and inviting, layer
shades of white for a look that is sleek and stylish but far from sterile.

9 Beautiful botanyA
nature-inspired palette doesn’t have to be as literal as using leaf-green and rose-red paint. Pick a
neutral colour with natural undertones and you’ve painted the groundwork for
botanical decor that can change with the seasons!

10 Staring at the seaLayering soft, watery blues lends a fresh
beach house style that can bring home memories of your favourite shore, from New Brunswick’s Bay of Fundy (the inspiration for this
beach-inspired dining room) to Vancouver’s Kitsilano Beach. Bonus? The dash of sunlight peeking in from the back of the cabinet and the cloudy white trim.
